Web site design for small, medium and large businesses.

Our MLS integration programming includes the ability to capture leads from your web site. A potential property buyer can search, browse and view all the listings without giving any of their personal information. If the potential buyer signs up for a free personal account at your site they have the added benefits of saving listings to their own private section of your web site. They can also save searches and get automatic notification via email when their saved Real Estate search results change.

By becoming a member of your web site the potential property buyer has provided you with their personal information, giving you the ability to work the lead. Once the potential buyer has signed in, their movements through the MLS section are tracked and logged. Your administration section is designed to provide you with their movements thereby giving you an idea of the kinds of property they're interested in. The admin section also provides a way to contact your site members individually or you can send a blanket email to all members with just a couple of clicks.

Our web site graphic designers will customize several areas of your new brokerage web site. A customized top banner with your company logo. A large main body graphic for your homepage or replace the main graphic with a nice Flash animation*. All color coordinated through-out the site. Depending on your locality we may decide that a theme approach would be called for.

For instance we have developed several Gulf Coast area real estate web sites that include a beach or vacation type theme. If your area supports a theme it's always a good idea to take advantage of the natural surroundings.

The web site admin section is custom programmed to provide you the ability to upload your graphic materials with ease. So there's no need to send attachments through email and image size is of no concern.

Xorb Media is very accustomed to dealing with local Real Estate MLS boards. If we do not already handle your local Real Estate MLS board we will make all the arrangements and provide all the requirements to become a Real Estate Web Site Design MLS Vendor. It is usually just a matter of faxing a couple of documents. Once approved we'll program the automatic MLS updates to work with our advanced SQL Redundant Database Servers and customize the integration to your web site. This WILL NOT be a framed link. The Real Estate MLS Search And Display features will be seamlessly integrated in to your web site.

At the same time we'll program the Real Estate Lead Capturing System to work with your MLS. All the administration features will also be made compatible with your local MLS. Xorb Media provides state-of-the-art Real Estate MLS Search And Display functions. Including:

• The Real Estate Lead Capturing System
• All MLS/IDX listings will appear with your photo and contact information. Even if the listing isn't yours. As provided by your local MLS/IDX rules.
• Display of all property features and particulars
• Display of all property photos
• Send Real Estate Listings To A Friend
• Printer friendly version of the property listing
• Dynamic Interactive Real Estate Property Mapping on every listing custom programmed through Microsoft's VirtualEarth. Including Satellite, 2D, 3D, and Street Overlay map features.

There will be no additional charges incurred by you for the Real Estate MLS/IDX integration. Most of the programming is already completed, we just need to taylor your MLS/IDX data to fit the programming.

This web site development package offers a choice of either the Helpful Information or Area Attractions self-administered module.

The Helpful Information Module allows you to create an unlimited number of help topics at your web site. In your administration section you can add a help topic, a short description of the topic and an extensive explanation of the topic. All done by simply typing your topic and explanation into a form field and clicking the submit button.

All of your web site help topics are maintained in our Advanced SQL Database. The frontend of your web site will display a list of topics along with its short description. The user can then click on the topic title and visit the page containing the extended explanation. This feature in essence gives you the ability to create an unlimited number of individual web pages in your site. Of course you should stick to Real Estate topics and remember to include strategic keywords when entering your copy.

Multiple web pages with individual titles incorporating Real Estate oriented information can greatly benefit your web site when it comes to search engine rankings and placement. Remember as with any web site Real Estate or otherwise, CONTENT IS KING. All three major search engines Google, Yahoo and MSN put a great deal of importance on relevant content.

The Area Attractions Module will enable you to add an unlimited number of external link categories and an unlimited number of links to those categories. For instance you could add a "Things To Do" category and then add links to area web sites that offer interesting and fun things to do in your area. Your admin sections allows you to add a link title, link and description of the web site you're linking to.

Depending on how you word your description being careful to add in as many relevant keywords as possible, this module can be very helpful in search placement. Relevant outgoing links are important to the major search engines, Google especially. However non-relevant outgoing links can be detrimental to your search engine placement. Google allows a special programming tag to be added to non-relevant outgoing links from your web site so that the links don't count against you. We've programmed this module to automatically include this special tag on all outgoing links in this module.
